"It's the army's role in the territories that is the cause of the bombings in Tel Aviv. Being a soldier increases the danger to my family here. You have to be blind to think that people under oppression won't rebel. Suicide bombing is a new phenomenon. It happened after 30 years. This just shows how bad the situation in the territories has become."

--- Israeli Army Major Rami Kaplan

It's important to examine his position here. He believes that European Jews, with 50% of the population of Palestine and with no historic rights to the land, should control 75% of the land, and that Palestinians, with 50% of the population and total historic rights to the land, should control 25% of the land. In this stance, he is considered to be a "radical" left-wing Israeli!
